01 — Why

Claude Desktop is brilliant.
Until you have five MCPs running.

Then it freezes. Tool calls hang for 4 minutes. Zombie processes pile up. And editing claude_desktop_config.json by hand stops feeling clever.

Skills sit in a folder with no UI. Importing a new MCP means manual JSON merging. Restarting takes a Cmd+Q hunt.

Claude Control is the small interface that should have shipped with the app.

02 — What it does

Six things. Done precisely.

FEATURE / 01

Toggle MCPs and Skills with one click.

A clean checkbox UI for what is currently a JSON file you grep through. Disable temporarily for a focused session, re-enable when needed. Backups happen automatically before each write.

FEATURE / 02

Live status.

Pulse indicator next to each MCP. Spot zombies before they freeze your session.

FEATURE / 03

Import in seconds.

Paste JSON. Drop a path. Clone from Git. Works for MCPs and Skills.

FEATURE / 04

Auto-update from GitHub Releases.

When a new version ships, the app shows a copper badge in the header. One click, git pull, and you are on the latest. The way software updates should feel.

FEATURE / 05

100% local. Zero tracking.

Runs on localhost:8765. No cloud. No analytics. No telemetry. Your config stays on your Mac, where it belongs.

FEATURE / 06

Zero dependencies.

Pure Python stdlib. No pip install, no node_modules, no virtualenv. One file. Audit the source in 10 minutes.

03 — Install

Thirty seconds.
One command.

macOS only. Requires git and python3 (preinstalled on macOS).

Terminal
$ curl -fsSL https://claude.sekoia.ca/install.sh | bash

After install, double-click Claude Control.app on your Desktop.
